The first thing to do, when personalizing your room, is to de-clutter it. Get rid of all the stuff you have accumulated over the years that you don’t need, or don’t want. Get rid of all of it. You will automatically see that your room looks much cleaner. Now you can decide what to do with it, and how you want to personalize it. Now make it different. Make it look unique. What do you do? Well, you could add different tiling, or different wallpaper – something totally unconventional. All you need to do is add some visual accessory, and your room will look much better.

For instance, you can choose one color and make that the dominant one, and then use the other colors as secondary shades. For instance, if you use red as the dominant color in your bedroom, you can use a red bedspread, red curtains, and a red edge to the mirror; perhaps paint the back of one door red. And then use other colors like pale yellow or ivory for the pillows, table, etc. do remember to choose the fabrics wisely. Choose the most comfortable fabrics that you find, you might even consider putting in silk sheets and rich cotton rugs.
